In case anyone wants to donate to Lloyd’s School fundraiser the link is below. It goes towards books, field trips, and teacher supplies. I’m convinced Lloyd is actually a sloth and not a human child but he still loves to read! myapexevent.com/event/28202/...

If you're feeling hopeless and miserable, I cannot possibly overstate how much it helps to just pick one thing you can do that helps people, and do it. You only need to do one person's worth of work. That's all any of us can do. You'll be doing what you can, and there is so much relief in that.

The NIH announced it will slash billions of dollars of support to universities and research centers. This is one of the biggest attacks on science we have ever seen. It could dismantle the biomedical research system, shut down clinical trials, and halt development of treatments.

If you’re a federal govt employee targeted for leave or termination on the basis of your DEI work, please file an EEO (Equal Employment Opportunity) complaint & retain legal counsel. I’m a former NIH PI. Happy to refer you to a law firm that has successfully sued the govt many times! Pls repost 🙏❤️

One of the most important things you can do today is your science. Knowing calculus/physics/genetics/chemistry etc. makes you rare and the world will need you to rebuild tomorrow. Practice your skills and pass them on. Keep the flame alive. 💚🌱🧪
